Sweet Red Pepper Dip - Easy, Healthy, Light

"Recipe source: mambosprouts.com I tried this recipe and have to admit I thought it tasted terrible! Fellow RecipeZaar user Zurie suggested using instead of tofu: 8 oz of smooth cottage cheese (or cream cheese, although it will be less healthy). She also suggested using 3 bell peppers instead of 2, and adding some grated Parmesan cheese and a few drops of hot sauce. Thanks, Zurie!"
